Mission Statement
 The mission of Employment Screening Services, Inc. (ESS) is to provide accurate, reliable, meaningful, cost-effective, and timely pre-employment background services that help our clients make better hiring decisions. 

Professional Employment Screening
 At ESS we understand that enhancing your company’s revenues and decreasing your losses begins with an honest and productive work force.  There is a tremendous cost involved in recruiting, hiring, training and then replacing an individual who does not work out on the job.  And the potential losses caused by employee theft, security violations and a wide variety of possible employee related lawsuits can severely damage a company’s bottom line and its reputation.  A new employee is a big investment.  Simply put – ESS’ professional service helps you hire with more confidence.  The result is your company is more productive and more profitable.

Why Use ESS?
We offer a wide variety of high quality reports at very competitive prices.  But what sets us apart from our competition is:

  • We provide more comprehensive information than any other screening company

  • Our turn around time is among the best in the industry

  • Our customer service is head and shoulders above our competitors … we’re not a
    “data factory” … we’re a full service provider

  • Our Internet System is extraordinary – superior to any on the market

Furthermore, we make it very easy to do business with us.  There is no minimum usage …no annual fee … no contract required in order to utilize our services.
   
          

About Us
Since our beginning in 1987, we have helped over 6,000 local, regional, national, and international companies with their employment screening needs. Every one of our executives and managers has been with the company for more than a nineteen years.  Most of our report processors have been with us for over seven years (some as long as fifteen.) So we’re very knowledgeable and experienced. We’ve got employment screening down to a science.  

ESS is large enough to have “staying power” – we’ve been in business for over twenty years – yet not so large that we treat you like a number.  And we’re nimble enough to accommodate many special requests your company may have.  We don’t have a lot of bureaucracy to wade through so we make decisions quickly. (If you’ve ever had issues with a big, slow moving company you know how frustrating it can be waiting for a resolution.  You won’t experience that with ESS.)

We’re a founding member of the National Association of Professional Background Screeners (NAPBS.) Our President is the incoming Chairman of the Board of NAPBS. So we are well respected in the industry and continue to be an active participant in its ongoing development.

ESS is federally regulated as a “consumer reporting agency” by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA,
Public Law 91-508, Title VI.)  We warrant and represent that all reports are obtained through legal sources conforming to all federal and state laws.  And because we are intimately familiar with the various laws, we’ll always keep you abreast of all the latest industry and government regulations.

             

Customer Service
ESS is not a “data factory”.  We’re a full service provider.  When you have questions or concerns, you need answers fast.  We take customer service very seriously.  It’s our top priority.  Our clients know they can always count on us to take care of their needs promptly and precisely. We recognize the employment screening industry has matured and one of the ways we distinguish ourselves from the competition is through superior service. We truly are “head and shoulders” above our competitors.
Our clients who have switched from other employment screening companies tell us this all the time.

And we’re here when you need us.  Our office is staffed twelve hours a day – so we’ve got all the time
zones covered.

             

Disaster Recovery Program
In today's world it is very important for companies to make contingency plans in the event of an unforeseen disaster. Anything from terrorist attacks, fire, floods, electrical outages, etc. can take a company out of business. At ESS we understand the importance of maintaining on-going operations. We realize that if we are unable to function for more than a day, it will delay the hiring process of our 6,000+ clients across the country. For this reason, we have invested in a complete Disaster Recovery Program.

The ESS Disaster Recovery Program allows us to be up and running within an hour's notice of any disaster that may arise. All our data is backed up by direct connect to a computer system 20 miles away from our corporate office. This allows us to have all data at our fingertips in the event of a disaster. In addition, we have a complete suite of offices set-up with computers, phones, and faxes for our staff to utilize immediately. Of course, we hope we never have a need for this process, but if we do, rest assured we've already taken the necessary steps to insure there is minimal disruption to the completion of your reports.

Privacy Statement
 Your privacy is important to us.  At ESS we are committed to protecting your privacy and earning your
trust. We respect your right to keep your personal and company information confidential and to avoid unwanted solicitations.
